There is currently 15 teams TOTAL spread out over 3 "divisions". Isnt it possible just to make 5 Man Race Combined (D2 and under). D1 doesnt offer it anyway and it would give a lot more meaning and compensation to winning it. Playing a national event against 5 other teams seems a little ridiculous. And lets face it, the skill difference between D4 and D2 is minimal. Half the players in D4 are there because they "can be" by definition. Its one thing at the local level but a whole different story at the national level. Just a thought....

True story. But seriously if they're going to switch pros to race-to they should just switch everyone. Looks like 7man is more popular right now as far as teams signing up- maybe the teams signing up for Race-To will switch over when it comes to actually registering. Would be nice to see which teams have actually paid.

Well said sir! I do not want to play in a division that only has 5 team but we dont have enough guys to run a full 7man team.

Can everyone just quit *****ing a ****ing play paintball?!
Their is more drama here then high school...

I wasn't *****ing, I was asking a question and also making a statement/point. Zero drama, zero threats of boycotting leagues or any of that bull. Just posing a thought to all of the other "customers" out there. Because that is what we are in this hobby we partake in. And as a consumer, I am looking to get the most out of my purchase. I would slit throats to go back 12 plus years to where men played this game instead of children and honor and pride didn't take a backseat to money and "growing" the sport. Because incase anyone hasn't noticed, the harder the powers that be try and "grow" the sport, the further in the hole it gets. To hell with tv, outside sponsors, the Xgames and all of the other MTV fashion hype. You say just ******* play ??? That's all I've been asking for since you were most likely in middle school.

Still would love to see NPPL make 5 man Open amongst the 3 existing divisions. That would put 22 teams in the mix vs the 14/6/2 mix it currently stands at.

Since they are already dividing prizes down to 4th place and I believe its 15% of total entry goes to prize, it would make ALOT more sense. By my math, first place (getting 50% of said 15%) would get around $7k. Even second place would almost get there entry back.

Otherwise, all this will do after the first event is give the 5man teams a reason to go to the PSP instead and frankly I much prefer NPPL but something has to give.
